The New School of Cyber DefenseFrank Mong, Vice President & General Manager of HP Security SolutionsThe old school of cyber defense emphasized securing infrastructure and restricting data flows, but data needs to run freely to power our organizations. The new school of cyber defense calls for security that is agile and intelligent. It emphasizes protecting the interactions between our users, our applications, and our data.

No one wants to end up as the next headline from a cyber security attack. But application security can be hard to do and takes time. Perhaps you failed an audit or swallowed the risk of vulnerabilities to get a new business app online. You need to CYA (cover your apps) fast!
Learn how runtime application self-protection can protect you in minutes when your applications:

• are too complex, too fragile, or ill supported to risk changing the code to remove security vulnerabilities
• have thousands of vulnerabilities – or that have never been tested – but are in production
• rely on code that is off-the-shelf, third party, or in the cloud - don’t be at the vendor’s mercy.

Learn how to identify and defend software vulnerabilities while the app is still being used. Quickly implement compensating controls to breeze past that next audit.

In today's world where applications are distributed through cloud and mobile platforms, the risks to vulnerable applications are multiplying. Application managers are looking for ways to consolidate controls around their disparate applications and assign the proper staff, leadership and workflow processes to do this.

Based on the 2014 Application Security Programs and Practices survey, application security is on the rise, with 83% of 488 respondents reporting some sort of application security program in place (up from 66% in SANS' 2013 survey). In the 2014 survey, respondents' primary focus for their security programs was around web applications.

This year's survey intends to find out how the rise of mobility and cloud applications is changing respondents' application security program efforts and to gather best practice advice for secure management of disparate applications throughout their lifecycle.

This second part of the webcast will focus on issues in application development.

Higher-order features such as lambdas exist ubiquitously in web applications and frameworks. They make development easier, but at a cost of added complexity and exposure to high risk vulns and attacks. However, statically ruling out such vulnerabilities is theoretical and practically challenging, especially when high-order functions and complex control-flow collide with opaque, dynamic data structures such as objects.

This talk aims to provide an easy-to-understand explanation of higher-order function and the difficulties involved in assessing it. We’ll include a brief report on the how HP Fortify Static Code Analyzer handles higher-order analysis and our plans for future improvements. Note: Content focused on a technical-level viewer.

There are a lot of reasons why you should fortify your application security to protect your business from hackers. And there are probably many reasons why you're not doing as much as you might.
In this video, HP and Slashdot Media detail the top 10 reasons you should enhance application security. And they go on to show you how HP Fortify static and dynamic application security testing products help you do it. Fortify uses the latest security intelligence to help you cut compliance testing time in half, find and fix vulnerabilities in hours, and enable the collaboration among development, testing, and security teams that make your applications and your business more secure.

Greater than 80% of today’s breaches occur with application software, yet many companies continue to invest in ‘over the wire’ solutions that are not solving the problem. Runtime Application Self-Protection, or RASP, is an emerging market that promises to protect applications from the inside. Using the rich context of the application’s logic and associated core libraries, RASP identifies attacks in ‘real-time’ and stops them. Implementation is quick and requires no changes to your application’s code. Join us to learn more about what RASP can do for you.

Learn:
•Why context from inside the application matters
•How easy it can be to use native capabilities of Java and .NET to protect your applications
•Use cases to get you started.

Help lead your enterprise to a stronger, more effective security program.

In the world of information security, the past isn’t dead; it isn’t even the past. The 2015 edition of HP’s annual security-research analysis reveals a threat landscape still populated by old problems and known issues, even as the pace of new developments quickens. In 2014, well-known attacks and misconfigurations existed side-by-side with mobile and connected devices (the “Internet of Things”) that remained largely unsecured. As the global economy continues its recovery, enterprises continued to find inexpensive access to capital; unfortunately, network attackers did as well, some of whom launched remarkably determined and formidable attacks over the course of the year.

The 2015 edition of the HP Cyber Risk Report, drawn from innovative work by HP Security Research (HPSR), examines the nature of currently active vulnerabilities, how adversaries take advantage of them, and how defenders can prepare for what lies ahead. Jewel Timpe, HPSR’s senior manager of threat research, describes the report’s findings and explains how this intelligence can be used to better allocate security funds and personnel resources for enterprises looking toward tomorrow.

We all want our families and homes to be safe with the convenience of remote monitoring, but do these smart home security devices really make our families safer or put them at more risk by inviting easier access to our homes electronically via insecure Internet of Things? In a follow-up to HP’s 2014 report on the Internet of (Insecure) Things we explore the security of popular off-the-shelf connected Home Security Systems and discuss various testing techniques we used in our study along with recommendations for manufacturers, developers and consumers.

Businesses are spending so much money on security -- almost $47 billion in 2013 -- and yet the number of breaches continues to increase. To mitigate the risks of increasingly sophisticated, innovative and persistent threats, we need to change the way we think about our security programs. In this webcast, Art Gilliland, General Manager of HP Enterprise Security Products, talks about the challenges all enterprises face from the bad guys -- and the critical steps businesses must take to defend against today's most advanced threats.
